I Can't Name 5 MC's Better than Big Pun

[FreshAIG]

U acting like Common didn't put Pun in his place in Verbal Murder 2

He didn't at all.

"I rush your crib like a Jehovah Witness
Blow up any soldiers, infants, hold up...did you notice my heroic entrance"

"I sack a rapper like a linebacker, play my rhyme backwards
You can hear the Devil speak his mind in fine graphics"

Yeah...you must've heard a different song

 

[LandryFieldsDad]

only on the internet you hear this dumb shyt,,
"nam sayin? his breath control yo."

gtfoh
do u realize how NICE he was?

i seen it all up close straight out the movies you'd be buggin.....

 

[TheBEASTCOASTrevival]

over pun?

yes

 

[Wacky D]

I don't know if nikkas in this thread are trolling or what

You can make a case for maybe about 5 rappers being better rappers than Pun. Pun can literally do everything better than most rappers, lyrically, flow wise, delivery, everything was great except Breath Control.

Now is he top 10 all-time as far as output? No. But as far as rhyming skills? He's top 3 all time.

output >>> rhyming skills

 

[FreshAIG]

output >>> rhyming skills

That's a fair argument, but it seemed like nikkas was saying these guys were better RAPPERS/RHYMERS than Pun which is absurd

There are quite a few rappers with better output tho Pun's first solo album is classic

 

[Big Mel]

Heavy D better then Pun. Jesus fukking Christ. It's over.

capital punishment is not a classic.

but yea, the confusion stems from the fact that theres 2 different arguments going on.

i think pun is a top 5 lyricist ever. but as an artist, hes nowhere near the equation. and thats not a knock. he was a great artist too. i even liked "yeah baby" but he had no classic tapes.

Disagree with the CP not being Classic part, but I co-sign majority of what you're saying

 

[The Ruler 09]

Pun as a lyricist was in that top bracket, 1 of the best ever.

 

[KOohbt]

cornball rg3 type brothas all through this site.

 

[Vice Gripp]

And 2 albums better than Capital Punishment.

Ill admit Encore sucked but that because what he was going through.

nikkaz Herr say Pun had verses killer than Eminem on renegade....well then name them

Easy.

If you asked Em he would name prolly 10 rappers better than him, and Big Pun would be part of that list.

And no one mentions one of the biggest factors for a rapper in my opinion, believable rhymes. Big Pun was a crazy mutha fukka. His rhymes weren't just lines.

 

[The Ruler 09]

Pun had impeccable breathe control at the beggning, later after his health declined it worsened.

 

[Vice Gripp]

That first verse..................

 

[The Ruler 09]

That first verse..................

That 2nd verse start too... Pun was 1 of a kind, a huge loss to Hip Hop.
